One of the most recent Design Districts of the Milan Design Week is Porta Venezia in Design. Even though it has recently been structured as an organic path during the Fuorisalone, Porta Venezia is a long-standing participant in the Milan Design Week, back in the early stages.
The exhibitions and the Palaces of Milan
